In honor of the release of Sully today in theaters we started the week spotlighting some great Clint Eastwood collectibles, and we'll end the week focusing on the film's star and one of Hollywood's most accomplished actors, Tom Hanks. (Top 10 Friday will become a monthly event for us for the last Friday of every month instead of something we do every week).

Tom Hanks first burst onto the scene as a bosom buddy and became one of the most awarded actors cinema has ever produced. We expect Sully to be another great turn from one of tinseltown's finest.
To take your Tom Hanks love to the next level, check out these collectibles.
